  • Publication number: 20240125355
    Abstract: A metallic bearing body for a sliding bearing includes a main body and a plurality of protrusions extending outward from the main body. Each of the plurality of protrusions extends in a longitudinal direction from the main body to an upper surface that is distal from the main body and has at least one through-bore that extends through the protrusion transversely relative to the longitudinal direction.

  • Publication number: 20230323862
    Abstract: A method for producing a component of a sliding bearing includes a) providing a metal bolt with a cylindrical lateral surface and two end faces; b) coating the lateral surface of the bolt with a soldering flux or solder material; c) providing a metal sheet made of bronze and forming it into a cylindrical sleeve having a longitudinal slot, wherein a first side of the metal sheet forming an inside is coated with a solder material or a soldering flux before or after the forming process, either the lateral surface of the bolt or the inside of the sleeve having soldering flux; d) sliding the sleeve onto the lateral surface of the bolt; e) integrally bonding the lateral surface and the sleeve soldering; f) optionally closing the longitudinal slot by welding; and g) optionally machining a second side of the metal sheet facing away from the bolt.

  • Patent number: 11092191
    Abstract: A method for producing a housing-side or rotor-side bearing body of a sliding bearing arrangement for mounting a rotating shaft of a rotor in a fixed housing. Providing a basic body of the bearing body. Processing the basic body on a surface by forming multiple intersecting grooves, between the intersecting grooves multiple bar-like protrusions are formed. Reforming the protrusions subject-to form a defined pattern of undercut-like recesses or geometries. Applying a sliding bearing material to the surface having the reformed protrusions subject to infiltrating or filling the undercut-like recesses or geometries.

  • Publication number: 20190063498
    Abstract: A plain bearing, with a bearing base body of a metallic material and a plain bearing layer of a non-metallic material. The plain bearing layer is applied to the bearing base body either directly or indirectly via an intermediate layer of a metallic material applied to the bearing base body. The bearing base body of the metallic material or the intermediate layer of the metallic material is produced from an austenitic steel or from a metal alloy. The plain bearing layer of the non-metallic material is produced from polyetheretherketone (PEEK) or from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
